Purpose
If the text inserted into a Code Macro in Confluence is too long, Confluence will wrap it to a new line.
Solution
- Navigate to the Stylesheet screen in Confluence Admin (at Browse >> Confluence Admin >> Stylesheet)
Add the following CSS:
code { /* forces the text not to wrap */ white-space: nowrap !important; }- Click Save
Navigate to the page containing the wrapped code block. It should now be unwrapped.
